Pieter Weinrieb met with me on very short notice. he went through court papers and explained everything clearly. I was very anxious about the situation prior to our meeting, the not understanding. Pieter explained everything in "layman" terms and gave me confidence in knowing what to expect next and how to positively move forward.

Pieter Weinrieb is an exceptional attorney with clear understanding and empathy towards a peaceful resolution to a difficult process. He understands that when children are involved in a separation or divorce, that it is complicated. He helps you understand the options and the many ways to resolve that major piece of the decision to move forward-together, separated or apart. He is sharp, understanding and knowledgeable about Family law. I couldn't imagine anyone else handling our affairs. He is exceptional.

Pieter: Thanks for all the help during this difficult time. I could not have made it through the process without your advice and sturdy hand. His experience and knowledge of the whole process was a calming influence on me. Always available to talk and listen. Thank you- Kevin

Pieter Weinrieb was my attorney for my separation. He was tremendously helpful during an exceptionally difficult time. He gave me a great deal of information. It's a tough position to feel emotionally vulnerable and rely on the advice of someone else, but Pieter is honest and trustworthy. He was incredibly supportive, helpful, compassionate and informative. I would highly recommend his counsel. He is family oriented, and it shows in his practice.

Hired Mr Weinrieb for a New State Family Court issue. It was an issue that isn't usually seen but was wrapped up in a very short time. It saved me thousands. He fights the fight for you and is a honorable person. He will be the first that I call on if I need help again.

Pieter Weinrieb, Esq. has represented in two matters in Family Court with 4 different appearances . He is an excellent Attorney and has provided me excellent advice. Both times he represented me we prevailed in court. I highly recommend him.

Mr. Weinrieb was very thorough throughout the court process. He always got back to me without one day of leaving a message or sending an email. He is very honest and realistic with potential issues and outcomes of the case. He exuberates empathy and professionalism and I would definitely recommend him!

Soon after the death of my daughter my son-in -law began to deny my access to my grandchildren. These were children I had a close bond with. I filed a petition in family court and sought out recommendations for a lawyer who was interested and willing to fight for my rights as a grandparent. Pieter Weinreib was highly recommended, and after meeting with Pieter for the first time I easily understood why he was so recommended. It was a very emotional time with the sudden death of my daughter, and Pieter was very sensitive to this fact. He clearly helped me understand my rights, and my options. Pieter worked tirelessly to negotiate an access plan to avoid trial, but unfortunately a trial was necessary. Throughout the whole process Pieter was always available to answer questions and provide reassurance. During trial he fought to make sure that. the judge clearly understood my love for my grandchildren, and my motivation to assure the children remained connected to their maternal family. He achieved a positive outcome. What impresses me about Pieter is that he is not only a good attorney, he is a good and caring person. I would highly recommend him to other grandparents who need to exercise their rights. Thanks Pieter!

I returned from Iraq in July 2008 and found myself in need of a Divorce Attorney. Mr. Weinrieb was initially recommended to me through my employer's famiy assistance plan. I contacted Pieter with my situation and he agreed to take my case. We met and he listened intently as I went through the specifics. He has a natural ability to make you feel at ease and has a keen understanding of these proceedings. Through the months of litigation he was very compassionate to my needs which led to a successful and fair conclusion to my case. Then again in May 2014, I was in need of attorney of Pieter's caliber to handle a family mediation situation. Without hesitation I called Pieter and he took my case. He handled this case with his expertise and professionalism that I had become accustomed to with another successful conclusion. I would highly recommend Pieter in any family type litigations. He's the Best!

Pieter Weinrieb is an excellent lawyer. He handled our custody case over the last 15 months while we fought to get sole custody of our grandson. These cases are never easy but Pieter was amazing. He always seems to know what to say and when to say it. He knows the pitfalls and guided us ever step of the way. He is respectful and always returns calls promptly. We interviewed 5 other lawyers before deciding on Mr. Weinrieb. We absolutely chose the best lawyer. We are so thankful that we put our trust in Pieter or we might very well have had a different outcome. You will find Pieter to be calm, cool, collected and always ready. He does not waste words. He makes his point and keeps it clear and concise. I would recommend Mr. Weinrieb to anyone. He listens to your concerns, explains everything thoroughly, and charts a course of action. The best part is that he is very adaptive. He thinks on his feet and can adjust accordingly. Let's face it court never goes as you think it will, so you need a lawyer that can handle changes, adjust his strategy and be prepared for anything. So much is done behind closed doors so you really need to make sure that your attorney knows what you want and always has your back and always has your best interest at heart. Pieter does that and more. He is simply the best lawyer in Buffalo. Having watched other lawyers talking with their clients while waiting for a case to be called you soon realize that many of them are just going through the motions and have little knowledge about the case and probably have not talked to their client or reviewed the case before walking through the doors. If your case is important do not put it in the hands of someone who really does not care. Pieter cares about his clients and never walks in unprepared. The life of our very young grandson was at stake and never lost sight of that. Thank God we chose Mr. Weinrieb.
